gltf-pipeline 2.0 creating empty models from gltf2 files

I’m running on Windows 10 and I installed gltf-pipeline locally in my project. I running the command with this line from package.json:

"gltf-pipeline": "node ./node_modules/gltf-pipeline/bin/gltf-pipeline.js -i ./ar/models/photoscan/gltf/model.gltf -o ./ar/models/photoscan/glb/model.gltf --stats",

Which is generating the following gltf file:

{"accessors":{},"asset":{"generator":"Khronos Blender glTF 2.0 exporter","version":"2.0","premultipliedAlpha":false,"profile":{"api":"WebGL","version":"1.0.3"}},"bufferViews":{},"buffers":{},"images":{},"materials":{},"meshes":{},"nodes":{"rootNode":{"children":[],"meshes":[],"matrix":[1,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,1]}},"samplers":{},"scene":0,"scenes":[{"name":"Scene","nodes":["rootNode"]}],"textures":{},"animations":{},"cameras":{},"programs":{},"shaders":{},"skins":{},"techniques":{},"extensionsUsed":[]}

And this is my console output:

Thank You for your help!

That branch may have some issues as well. Since you are doing a straight gltf to glb conversion, I would recommend checking out the glTF VS Code extension: https://github.com/AnalyticalGraphicsInc/gltf-vscode, which can convert gltf + external resources to a glb.

Thank You, I will check it out!
